FEMALE TROUBLES CURED.

To Suffering Women:
For over two years have been a constant
sufferer from Neuralgia Of the Heart, Ovarics
and Womb. For the last two months grew
worse, and was confined to my bed with other
and had no hope of life. All skill and medi-
cine had failed, when I was carried in a Carri-
age to DR.. FaUning's Office. After his first
treatment, was relieved and able to walk
(Which treatment only lasted 30 minutcs). The
next day / was able to walk to his Office. AZ
ter three more treatments ! was entirely
cured and a well woman.

sex, and to DIR. Tanning | owe my life. MAY
God spare him to do unto others at he has un-

No uncomfortable number of country
editors seem to take especial pride in
pointing out to Gov. McGili where he
has erred in naming certain men for
certain positions within his gift. II
these same editors will take the pains to
compare the new appointees with those
made by former.governors analyze the
fitness of each and draw comparison as
to fitness and qualifications, we opine
they will have reasons to commend his
appointments as whole No man not
familiar with the situation in detail can
begin to conceive the terrible pressure
under which Gov. McGill has been
placed during the past two months. 1t
would seem that the whole population
of the State had been turned loose upon
him, and like hungry pack of wolves
were scrambling for first blood. That
no other Governor of Minnesota was
ever alike afflicted goes without saying,
and that Mr.. McGill has selected wisely
and well his subordinates is a fact. In
one or two instances il is possible that
men might have been selected whom
the politicians could praise with greater
satisfaction, but the people will be quite
as we'll served as 1t is, and Governor
McGill has shown himself possessed of
the true metal by his refused TO bow
down and worship the demands of a
horde of pot-house politicians whose
only interest in the success of any can
didate is measured by the standard of
Of what they may be able to dictate. It
is true that the second district has not
been recognized to the the extent that
her Republicanism would seem to war
rant, but what we lack in this particular
at this time has been fully atoned for in
the post through an Over-generous dis
tribuation of "loaves and fishes"

INTDR-sTATE coMMnRoE BILL.

The interstate commerce bill, one OF
the most important measures with
which the national congress has had to
contend for long time, was passed by
the Senate on Friday last by the over
whelming majority of 43 to 10. 1t us a
pleasant fact to note, and one that is par
ticularly noticeable, not single mem
Der from any state in the West voted no
on the bill with the single exception oi
Senator Williams, of California.
Thus il is that after a series of years
TO secure national regulation of inter.
state commerce, the people of the Uni
ted States have the satisfaction Of know
ing that their representatives propose
to heed the demand. While the ques-
tons involved in the bill are of very
complicated nature, and while expert
ence may demonstrate some needed re-
visions, yet in the main the bill is all
right and cannot fail to work great good
to the country at large.
1t is probable that the House will take
the measure up mt an early day and
from all appearances there will be prac'
tically no opposition to the bill as passed
by the Senate.

At the National convention of Cattle
Growers, held in Chicago about the
middle of December a committee on
Congressional legislation, composed OF
some of the most prominent cattle grow
ers in the United States, was appointed
to secure the enactment of hat is known
as the miller bill' for the supp ression
OF contagious exotic diseases among cat
tie: THIS measure has already been in
troduced in the Senate by Senator
Spooner, of Wisconsin, and in the House
by Representative Carey, of Wyoming.
AS an auxiliary committee for Mime
sofa, Messrs. j. j. Hill, VIM. Merriam,
q. A. DeGraff, r. ID. Hubbard, A. p.
Clarke, w. M. Liggett, G. N. Cosgrove
and Geo. w. Hill have been appointed
to unite in request TO the representa-
tives Of this State in Congress, 10 use
their endeavors, individually and col
lectively, to secure the prompt passage
of the measure.
To representatives of constituencies
largely agricultural, as are those of Min
nesota, 1t is perhaps unnecessary to more
than call their attention, in u passing
way, to the fact that such relief is de-
manded for the protection of one of the
greatest and most important of Mime
sofas industries. 1t must be evident
by this time that nothing short of some
extraordinary power as is called for in
this bill will insure safety and protection
to the business of cattle growing in every
part of the United States. This bill
covers every essential point and il
drawn with the utmost care and preci-
sion, intrusting the work of swift deal
ing with exotic plaques to commission
OF practical men, whose powers. duties
and pay shall cease whenever their
work shall have been accomplished.
Until recently, pleuro-pneumonia IN
this country has been almost wholly
confined to States east of the Aileghan-
les, but its advent into the Western
States, the greatest cattle country in the
world, Is of such threatening nature as
to demand prompt and effective meas
ures for It's suppression, for the loss
with which the vast cattle industry OF
the United States is now subjected can
only be approximated ny the know
ledge, or ut least an appreciation, of the
extent of this interest and the losses
suffered by other countries in which il
has obtained footing.
The value of cattle IN Minnesota alone
exceeds $40, 100000 and when the value
of land and buildings devoted to the
raising of stock is added to this, the to-
tai money value of the property directly
endangered by contagious cattle disease
cannot be placed at less sum than
800, 900, 900 in the State. Now take the
cattle industry throughout the United
States, valued at a conservative estimate
at not less than two billion dollars, and
is 1t any wonder that Congress is asked
to afford protection?
All that is asked of Congress is to ex-
tend to the cattle growers that protec-
ton which every civilized governm ent
extends to the lives and property of its
citizens, and that request cannot be
denied. Not only Is this bill necessary
to the protection of cattle, but it is
equally important for the protection OF
the health of our people and as meas
ure of political economy.

Fargo dealer pays no more for his oil
where there is no inspection than the
dealer in Moorehead. Mr.. Castle adj
mitted, however, that much of the oil

explosions. There is considerable re-
sponsibiiity attached to the office. and
any great accident caused by Incom-
petence or negligence would forfeit the
oil inspectors bond to the extent of the
damage, to say nothing of the moral
consequences. Mr. Hixson put several
very pertinent questions to Mr.. Castle.
He asked if Mr.. Castle believed So. 600
to be enough. Answer was declined
Then, since Mr.. Castle had explained
that he had paid his assistance i'm these
two counties out of his gross receipts.
which last year were little over Sl4 600,
Mr.. Hixson wanted TO know how much
labor he had done to get his emoIu-
ments.. Mr.. Castle explained That prac-
tically he did all oft, since he paid his
assistants out of his emoluments TO do II
for him. w. W. -
Oil Inspector Willis thinks Mr.. Dan
iePs bill is defective because it would al
low the state oil inspector to do his duty
until he had secured bis So 900, then he
could continue to employ deputies AT
VI 900 each until ali the fees were ab-
sorbed. or course, no conscientious of
fetal would be willing to do this, but il
would be possible. His idea is to have
the state devided into districts and ap-
point deputy for each district. The
solution of the problem seems to be that
the fees should be paid into the state
treasury and the state inspector and his
deputies should draw their salaries ms
other officers by warrants. A conting.
gent fund for the expenses of the Office
would have to be provided.

The Supreme, CO1It of New Jersey-has
made decision on the subject of barb
ed-wire fences which will be of wide in
terest. 1t appears that one Hudson had
a field inclosed with a barbed-wire
fence, and Mr.. Polak owned fine colt
which he put to pasture in field adjoin-
ing that of Hudson. The colt received
injuries from the fence which necessitat-
ed its being killed, and Polak sued Hud-
son for its value. Judge Magic, in de-
livering an opinion in the case, held
that "no owner of field has a right to
erect any fence without taking into con-
sideration the natural habits of the ami
mails that are likely to be kept in the ad-
joining field, their habits in their play
fulness, their disposition to stray even
their disposition to break through and
that any fence which is likely, from the
habits of the animals, to produce injury
to them, is illegal, and the persons erect
ing it is liable for the damage it does"
Should this case stand the test of further
legal procedure, it will prove death
stroke to the barb-wire industry. The
wire manufacturers will no donbt fight
the matter.

GENERAL HAzEN, Chief Signal officer

Washington Sunday night very unex-
pectedly of Brights' desease. For sever
al years the General had suffered from
this complication, but during the win

so much SO, that his wife who has an af.
lection of the throat, went to Europe
in December TO see if change of eli
mate would not benefit her. Gen. Hazen
attended the Presidents reception
Thursday night and took severe cold.
Friday he kept his bed, but Saturday
found him better and he was able TO sit
up most of the day. A reaction however,
took place Saturday night and all efforts
to save his life proved futile. General
Hazen was a man possessed of Il peculiar

and unjust public criticism was source
of much grief to him. By right of SEN

JUST AS THEY USED TO DO.
But the scent OF the rose
Will ItnDnF fhnna affIl -

Old Jake Thompson, when stealing
the bonds of the Indian trust fund, was
representative Southern man and his
spirit like the scent of the rose still
fingers in the heart of his countrymen.
There are 81. loo, 600 of the bonds of the
Southern States held by the United
States government in trust for various
tribes of Indians, and $4,000, 900 held
by private parties upon which the South
ern States issuing them have defaulted
In the payment of interest, the first
step in Reputation. Reputation of
liabilities, obligations or oaths is not a
new thing in the South. They have
done all this before, and there are plen.
ty of men holding high positions under
the present administration and being
literally rewarded for disregarding their
official oaths in 1851. They have not
got to where they quite dare to steal the
bonds, but they can render them worth
less by refusing to pay the interest which
is just as bad for the United States, who
will have to make up the loss 10 "poor
Lo." The white private parties who
hold the $50, 0OO, 900 must look out for
themselves. Probably large share of
them are Democrats, who bought the
bonds of their Southern brethren be-
cause they preferred them to the bonds
of the United States government. Our
heart has no ache for them. This will
probably please that class of people who
by their talk and writing would evident
Iy prefer seeing the U. S. treasury IN the
condition in which the last Democratic
President left it, empty-swept and
garnished, the President compelled to
"skin" around among the brokers bor-
rowing money at 2per cent interest to
pay his salary and the running expenses
of the government to having q few mill
lions on hand with which to meet the
emergency of Democratic rebellion,
making needed internal improvements
or paying our national debt, II will re-
duce that awful frightful bugbear to that
class ''the surplus" in the treasury. The
U. s. government might better speculate
in wheat options than Southern bonds.

A MANLY EDoRsEMENT.

The Journal was never, and is not now,
very great admirer of Gov. McGill,
and cannot, therefore, be accused ofgiv-
ing him "tatfy" in speaking we'll of his
message. We call 1t good one from
beginning to end. The Governor makes
no attempt to straddle every issue, but
devotes the larger part of his inaugural
to the railroad question III its several
phases, to railroad land taxation, prison
labor, the tax laws and the liquor traffic,
all of which are matters of great impor'
lance to the well-being of the State. His
views on all the subjects named are
sound, and If the legislature will give the
same careful attention To each when the
time of action comes, and follow his rec
concentrations, the people will be given
some laws that will almost, if not entir'
ly. drive out the dissatisfaction now ex-
listing on every hands,. James Journal

INDIANAPOLIS Journal: What have the
Democracy of Indiana ever done to re-
fleet credit on the State or to bring it
honor a: home or abroad? In time OF
war they were for peace and in time OF
peace they are for war. When the State
needed Soldiers they were plotters OF
treason, and when she needs statesmen
they are political swash-bucklers, ready
to fight for a theft and die for a fraud.
When other States were vying with one
another in the race of loyalty to the
Union, and attracting the attention of
the world by the patriotic unanimity of
their people, the Democrcy of Indiana
were in open sympathy and secret cor
respondence with rebels, and were try
ing to bankrupt the credit and wreck
the honor of the State. Then, as now,
they were arrayed in opposition to the
Constitution and laws, trying by revo-
lutIonary methods to overthrow both.
When did they do anything TO reflect
credit on the State or bring it honor at
home or abroad?
